    Porsche club. Gt3's back on track at Le Castellet , Paul Richard . PICS .

    My regional Porsche Club organized a few track days at the circuit Paul Richard in Le Castellet, France . This track is owned by Bernie Ecclestone , 5.8km long , set in a beautiful south of France landscape, just 15 min from the Sea and it's mediterranean shores . 

    http://www.circuitpaulricard.com/en/home

    A perfect place to enjoy some fun, good food, great weather , nice cars . 

    There were about ten 991 GT3's . All back on track..... expect for another problem that needed to be fixed by Porsche . Stones could break the front radiator . There seems to be another recall to change a piece of plastic to avoid this.

    I put Michelin PSS on my Carrera S , and have been very happy with the much increased braking power , better lateral grip and much more quiet then my previous Bridgestone .

    Enjoy my pics  ( click on them to enlarge ).

    You will see a big variety of cars, including 2 Speciale and Cup cars,  Cup R and RSR .

    The ''gold'' turbo and the yellow turbo are leaded cars to owners of GT3 that did not have their engine changed yet .

    Comment from the owner of the Speciale : very forgiving, even when entering a corner wrongly , the car gets back on line without a sweat .  In brief : very easy car compared to predecessor ( he has one before )

    More feedback the PSS please indecision wink

    You did not happen to see if the the OZ Superforgiata wheels on the 991 Carrera S with ducktail were 19" or 20"? I still got mine collecting dust in the garage.

    I did not look at the size of the Superforgiata ...... but he was too fast with them Smiley  . Maybe by looking closeting at the photo you can determine if they are 19 or 20 ?

    The PSS have much better grip on the front tires . Less understeer and much more breaking power , as they do not slide easily .  Lateral grip is also better . They are a little bit less progressive then the Bridgestone I had ( which are very progressive ), but nothing to worry about .  More silent ( but then new tires are always way more silent then used ones ) . They feel very confortable .  I have not yet been confronted to wet roads .
